Salmon fit for a Queen

[coz]

This was in a magazine a year or two ago and is a favorite at our house.


Start with a fillet from a 8# or bigger fish and remove the bones which if you cut them out leaves a nice "V" groove which I extend all the way to the tail as it leaves more room for the crab mix.season the fillet with what you prefer We like adobo with white pepper and a little old bay.
Mix together crab meat and dried bread crumbs with just enuff mayonnaise to hold together.Now take the stuffing and fill thee "V" in the fish.
Take enuff raw,peeled and deviened shrimp to cover the fish and if you have more of crab mix left you can put it on top the fish also.
While the fillet is grilling drizze seasoned butter over the top frequently,we use the same seasoning that we use on the fillet mixed with melted butter.
I prefer indirect heat for cooking this fish.When the fish is flaky take a large spatula and slide it between the fillet and the skin and put serving size portions on a platter.Serve with melted butter.
